Abstract

There are many studies on green spaces in living environment. These studies said about relations between green spaces and sense of dwellwrs. What green spaces do dwellers recognize as intimate ones? The object of this report is to grasp relations between a inner green space and dweller's recognition through the degree of knowledge on intimate green spaces. Perhaps differences of recognition of the green spaces would be the causes of the conditions, the forms and the inner structure. Results were the following.
1) Intimate green spaces These are usually seen in daily life. These have been in the region for a long time. These have changes in every season and dwellers can maintain for them selves such as cleaning fallen leaves.
2) Green spaces differing to degree of their recognition High degree-There are a lot of high trees in the green (50%-) space and we are free of these spaces. Medium degree?There are many high trees in the green space (20-50%) and we make use of it with some restrictions. Low degree-There are symbol trees (landmark) and the (-20%) andowner is enterprise corporation and private.
3) Dominant causes of the difference of their recognition Recognition of green spaces is related to landmark, contacts in dweller's daily life and ways of maintenance and management.
